"Music Through the Ages is an understandable history of the fascinating aspects of music history linking past to present.
It is designed to aid the serious student -- be he in a college class, a conservatory, a secondary school or his own living
room armchair to meet and wrest with some of the issues posed by the study of the history of music ... Under the aegis of
Dr. Rogers it has been revised and expanded to provide the most simple and direct approach to the understanding of music of
every type and level. It guides the reader to the salient points in the long and vivid story of music stimulating him to continue
reading about its varying phases since its genesis to the era of the twentieth century."--Jacket
